Merry Christmas Tony,

Looking good! Caulking has turned out great.

Hatch is a scary cut!

Looking forward to more pics.

Hi there,

I have a few pics in my build pages, don’t overthink it, so long as both sides are the same and you are happy with the lines.

That’s a bummer, sorry to hear,

We have had a cracker year of boating and loads of fun.
And the good thing is we boated all through our winter(not that we get one)!

Better year for everyone next year hopefully.

Hi Tony,

I used thickened epoxy, I used baby powder (Johnson and Johnson)
West system white pigment 501

Clear coat is polyurethane 2pak clear by PPG

Hi,

I set my bootstripe with a laser along the length of the hull, the stripe will thicken and be a weird shape where it goes over the chine and under the bow.
Photos are of my Belle isle, I did my stripes a bit different
I followed the plans and it worked out spot on.

Tom,

To shape the foam I marked on both side of leading edge 1” in,
Cut that off with a bread knife and then used the coarse mesh style sand paper on a rubbing block to round the edges, worked well.

Congratulations Bob,

Looks great and I can imagine the smile that would have been plastered on your face!
Glad it all went well, now you are on the home stretch

Is very solid, only issue is the bolt at the back is a little painful to get to, other than that very happy with the...

Bob,

I agree with Bob Perkins

I would complete off the cradle, your biggest challenge will be keeping your nice shiny trailer clean.

Top deck makes an incredible mess of the shop

Just my thoughts

Looking great and can’t wait to see you on the water

Hi all, Went out again on the weekend to test out my new kneeboard. Boat polished on Saturday everything ready, up early Sunday morning and packed the esky with food and drinks. Hooked the boat up for an early exit to the dam, that’s when we discovered that some low life had walked up our street dur...

Hi I really like your idea. I have never looked at wake boats until I found Pavati I am also looking at building a replica of the Pavati and was thinking about buying the Bolero plans and making the changes to have the appearance of a Pavati but with my own twist. I will be doing aluminium for the b...

Corey,

What you have there looks correct.
Read and re read and look at other build pics.

If you need any I can dig them out and send to you as you need
